Secrets of the Sphinx by Andrew Raymond is an amazing act of syntheses and
one of the more informative books to be published in recent times. By reading
this review and other pages linked from this site, you will discover that
our scientists divide the 25,800-year cycle of our Earth into twelve ages
instead of twelve months, and that the Great Sphinx in Egypt marks the
"Happy New Year" of this cycle. The 25,800-year cycle of our
planet with its four seasons is called the Great Year, the
Platonic
year (Plato's year), or the precession of the equinoxes in a
comprehensive dictionary.

The four seasons
of the great year are marked by Egypt’s four minor sphinxes, Ezekiel's
four heads of the beast, Revelation’s four cherubim, and astronomy’s
Taurus, Leo, Aquarius, and Scorpio (Abraham's Eagle) constellations.

Our Current Position in
the Great Year(Cross takes 25,800 years to make one
turn through the twelve ages)

Our
astrological birth signs no longer coincide with the sun's location in
the constellations of the Zodiac because of precession. Even the Tropic
of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn are now the Tropic of Taurus and
the Tropic of Scorpio when we observe the sun on the solstices? Our astrologers
and map makers neglected to update our present position in the cosmos for
over 2,000 years. We are not the astrological birth signs the newspapers
and a majority of the astrologers proclaim we are!

The
North star (pole star) also changes with the precession of the equinoxes.
The North star was Thuban (Alpha Draconis) when the Great Pyramid was constructed
to align with true North. The descending passage of the Great Pyramid points
to Thuban, the most accurately aligned pole star of all the North stars
in the 25,800-year cycle of our Earth.

25,800-Year Cycle of Earth

Comprehend that the word
sphinx means to bind or close a
circle tightly, and that the Great Sphinx binds Virgo and Leo in the Zodiac on
the ceiling of the Portico — at Esna's Khnum Temple. The Great Sphinx marks the "Happy
New Year" of our present Platonic year, and Leo was the first age
in this great year. Listen when the Vatican informs us every Christmas
Eve, when it reads the ancient Calens (calendar) from Rome, that it was
the sixth age or the Piscean Age when Jesus, the fisherman, was
born 2,000 years ago. Even the ancient Persians called Polaris the "turning
point star" 5,000 years before it became our current pole star between
the sixth and seventh ages.

Precession of the Vernal Equinox(Currently, we are at the end of the
Sixth Age -- halfway around one great year)

When
Moses threw out the golden calf, he knew it was the end of the
Taurus
Age or the fourth age in our present great year. He instructed his
followers to get rid of the bull, put lambs' blood on the doors, and place
Rams' horns in the temples. By looking at the Master Calendar, the Mazzaroth,
or the Zodiac in the heavens, anyone could see that it was the dawning
of the Age of Aries the ram or lamb. It was the start of the fifth
age in our current great year.

It
was the third age, or the Age of Gemini 6,000 to 8,000 years ago,
when some people on the Earth believe Adam and Eve lived. Gemini is also
known as the twins or Adam and Eve in the ancient Zodiacs.

At
one time in history, the Vernal Equinox used to indicate New Year's Day
in our annual calendar until Julius Caesar moved it to January 1 in 45
BC. The names of our months still reflect March as the first month of the
year. In Latin, Septem is seven,
Octo is eight, Novem
is nine, and Decem is ten. This is why the name of an age is determined
by where the sun is on the Vernal Equinox. The megalithic monuments like
Stonehenge, Chichen Itza, and Casa Grande are all trying to find the Vernal
Equinox or the first day of spring in the Northern Hemisphere.

Understand
how Nostradamus, Revelation writers, and the Mayans could have used this
25,800-year cycle of our planet to predict what can be expected as we dawn
the age of Aquarius. The ancients refer to the coupled-ages of Pisces and
Aquarius in the great year as the time for the FisherMan
or Merman to return from the sea. The old legends say that he will teach
the people how to heal and govern themselves.

Don't
be confused by the misinformed people on the planet. Our scientists inform
us that, in the great year, we are beginning the Aquarian Age and leaving
the Piscean Age. When someone says, its the dawning of the Age of Aquarius,
that is no different then someone saying, it is the beginning of the month
of July. Only, ages are around 2,150 years long, while months are made
up of approximately 30 days. Many college books inform us that we are commencing
a new age in the great year.

Even
Pat Robertson, who throws oranges across the media-air waves at the new
age people, wrote a book called The End of the Age. He should realize
— if we are eternal as he preaches and it is the end of an age, than it
must be the beginning of a new age.

Catch
the "joke of the universe". The Oneness, God, or the Whole says
to Itself: I am everything! I am God! I am It! I am the point or a perfect
circle! God I am bored! I am so tired of playing with Myself. This is ridiculous.
I am tired of being all one or alone.

"Boring"

Notice
that "all one" and "alone" are essentially the same word. If one is all
one, then one must be alone. Are we sensing the predicament of the One
Who Causes? Being absolutely bored, the Oneness comes up with a bright
idea. Why! I'll just split into two. This would be the same way we split
into two teams to play football, chess, or checkers. The Perfect Circle,
God, or the Whole gets imaginative, and It splits in two or in-to creation.

In-Divided-Dual or Individual

Once
the Oneness or God splits into the two U's (You & You, Us or We), what
is a game the universe can play? "Hide and Seek" of course! God can hide
from Itself, and spend Its Being trying to find Itself. Give me space to
find myself! I have been found! I found it! Most of us know that lost and
found departments are normally found together.

A Double of You or A Double
U

The
game of the universe is hide and seek. Dis-member to separate. Re-member
is to put it back together again or to remember something we have forgotten.
Every baby knows this intuitively, until we teach it to babble in words.

The
last 2,000 years has been the Piscean age. Two fish tied together trying
to swim apart. We allowed them to swim so far apart, that we lost sight
that the opposites are connected. This is the hide stage of the game of
"Hide and Seek" in full manifestation. The more we separate them
the more lost we become. At this juncture in the great year, we are using
less than twelve percent of our brain's potential, and we are only putting
one fish on the car bumper. How lost we are!

Piscean Symbol

The
coming of Aquarius, the man or water bearer, gives us two lines that fit
back together. We are approaching a time of Atonement (at-one-ment). It
is time for us to re-member or awaken. It is time to look down and observe
that our right and left hands are connected. Notice that the electric light
doesn't work without the plus and minus. The end of the Piscean Age is
a time of Revelations. It is time to reveal the truth. Catch the Joke!
— It was necessary to get lost just to play.

Aquarian Symbol

Secrets
of the Sphinx is
a revealing book that is subtitled The Mysteries of the Ages Revealed.
It points out that it is not the end of the world, but we can expect some
very big seasonal changes — the same as the frost comes and the
leaves change colors shortly after the beginning of fall. It will teach
you what types of foods will help you stay healthy, look younger, and handle
the sun's increasing light at this juncture in the great year.

Secrets
of the Sphinx is an uplifting experience and an easy book to read.
You will be thinking about this publication long after you set it down!!

Hi Andy!To begin, I purchased and read your book
Secrets of the Sphinx. It was great!The reason I am emailing is I thought I'd get
your input on this issue. I have been doing some research on the "Precession",
but I am having a difficult time finding agreement in which sign marks
the beginning or ending of said "Precession". Can you shed
some light on this? Hopefully this wasn't in your book because if it was I
either missed it or forgot about it. It's been a while since I read
it...LOL!
Peace and Love,
Raymond

Dear Andy. I am fifty seven years of age and like you I have
been searching for the truth for as long as I can remember,
through libraries of booksincluding the Bible, and today through
the internet with the advance of technology. I am by no
means at your level, but I am steadily getting there.

Things really started to take off when I learned about
Precession and I have been engrossed with it since. I have
even drawn my own precessional charts and spent lots of time
drawing dots,lines, circles, and Pyramids. Although
everything I did seemed to make sense in my search, I still
could not quite pull it all together. Then I came across
your book and you dotted the I's, and crossed the T's for
me, for which I will be eternally grateful. Especially the
hourglass. and the four cherubims.

I will continue to
search for the rest of my life, and to put into practice
everything I learn. I would very much like to keep in touch
if that's o.k. with you.

a very happy enlightened soul,
John

Raymond,I mysteriously came across links to your book while
searching for something completely different.I had to solidify
my being grateful for you sharing your knowledge with this letter.
Hopefully you will continue to enlighten , and should our creator
see fit, we will meet, either on this plane - or the next one
up. *One
Love*H.

Mr
Raymond,My quest for knowledge has recently lead me to your web
site, and your "Secrets of the Sphinx" book. I'd just like
to say "thank you for writing this book". I've found the book to be
packed with powerful Knowledge, yet easy to read, a rare combo
indeed. Again, thanks for providing this revealing info.Regards
ScottArdmore, OK

Andrew,Thank you for you dedication, your heart, and your
attitude.And most of all, thanks for sharing."Secrets was a
confirmation and an inspiration at the perfect time.Funny how
that happens.All the Best,MarkPalm Springs, CA

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I' ve read a shitload of books and have found alot of hidden
meanings in the bible. Of course, as you are aware, I am
finding that the more knowledge and wisdom that I acquire, the
less that I am able to relate to the average person. Oh well,
no turning back now. What did St. Paul say? "It is
impossible for those who have once been enlightened to turn
away, for in doing so is like crucifying the Son of God all over
again and subjecting Him to public disgrace."
Lucky charms,Dr. Dan

Aloha Andrew!I loved Secrets of The Sphinx! I owned it 10 years
ago and gave it to afriend 'cause I knew they would love it, and
they did! I really missed thatbook, so I contacted you about 2
years ago when trying to obtain anothercopy for myself. You
responded, and per your direction, I found a copy, andhave read
it several times since. Thank you!

I would love to know if
you do any seminars, workshops, etc.

My wife and I would be
delighted to experience more of your teachings.

It
is with great gratitutde that I thank you for providing this
information to those who seek it!! I have one point-of
many-that I hope you can clarify. During which age did the
current Great Year begin? I thought that any given Great
Year would begin in Leo and then begin again at the next
Leo-25,800 years later. I realize you mentioned that the Age
of Aquarius is considered the midpoint of the great year cycle
but then the question was presented that asked to identify
if the Age of Pisces was the end of the current Great year.
Chapter 13 provided me much needed insight as to what to expect
and how I may continue in my search for knowledge as we
enter the Age of Aquarius. Thanks

By
the way, I finished your book. I read a hundred pages the first day
i got, then i finished the rest inthe next two days. It is a
really good book. I let my friend borrow it too, and he said, "This
is one ofthe only books that I've actually 'tripped balls'
reading." We both like it because it's full ofinformation that
can really push our minds to the edges, but it's easy to digest at
the same time. Admittedly, I'll need to read it more to get the
full meaning though.Matt California

Dear RaymondThank you for the
downoad of the Sphinx Revealed book. I really appreciate it. I do
music with my wife. You can hear the songs at: XXXXXXXXXXXX
Today is my wifes Birthday!Thanks againyours trulyJosePuerto Rico

Just a short note to let you know
how much of a blessing your information (your hard work in
studying, researching and sharing with us) means to me. I,
too, have been searching. I will understand the Bible much
better. You made my day.

Blessings,

Eva

Hi, I haven't read you book yet, but I have read everything on your
web site. I am fascinated in what I have read. I am only 15,
but I have studied spirituality, mythology, religon, astrology, and
a bunch of other stuff. Lately, I have been trying to study all
of the different religions basis on the end of the world. The
Mayans with their 2012, the christians with their "Mark of the
Beast." It all fascinates me. I just want to say that I think
of you as a brilliant man, and I wish you luck with the rest of your
life. Jake------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I have been spell-bound by the little
information I've read so far on your web page regarding your book
"Secrets of the Sphinx..." I rushing to the bookstore and
purchasing it today! Your information seemed to have filled a void
in my soul and spirit and I have yet to read the first page! I
look forward to corresponding with you after I have read what seems
to be a truly wonderful and inspirational book. THANK YOU!

I recently finished reading your book and found it quite
interesting.Lots of new ideas I've never thought of before.Thought you might be interested to know about another error I found;
you'll want to fix it in your new edition. On page 27, you mention
thePhoenician goddess 'Astarie'. I believe the correct spelling
is'Astarte' with two t's.Scott------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Thank you for being here at this time.I was just searching for
Planetary Alignments on this day of the southernSpring Equinox,
and I was pleased to connect with information thatreinforced,
from another's point of view, the information that had beencoming to me, linking sphinxes, pyramids, relationships and galacticconnections.When I understand more, I'll be happy to share with
you.Frank------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello, Andy;My name is Ed XXXX. I live in Arizona. I found
your website acouple of weeks ago and immediately ordered your
book from a local bookstore. I received the book yesterday and
will finish it today. But I couldno longer keep myself from
contacting you. I find your book very exciting.

I am
especially excited by your understanding of the mystical nature of
theenglish (anglican, angelic) language. I believe the english
language wasdelivered to man in the end of the Picean age for
the express purpose ofrevealing the true nature of man to man.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I read your book while relaxing pool-side at the hotel the last two
days. One of the young bar maid beauties inquired about the book
and was intriguedwith what I was able to share. She said she
was anxious to get the book andmade some notes on her napkin. I
really enjoyed your book. I plan onreading it again and sharing
it with my kids and some friends. I also feel inclined tore-read
"Skinny Legs and All" because of your reference to the dance of the
seven veils. I don't know what it all means, but I believe
everything happens for apurpose - so you and your ideas are now
part of the tapestry of my life and Iam grateful to have had the
good fortune to cross paths with you.

Gratefully,Larry------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi!I have just stumbled upon your web site and I really found it
enlightening.It called to my attention that what goes on in one
part of theglobe affects another part, sooner or later. I think
that unity isthe key element needed in order for the cancer that
humanity isinflicted with to be cured.Like a human body, the
cells (individuals) of mankind must worktogether in a unified
manner or else cancer or other illesses may result.Sincerely

Wow, man! Your page is really cool. Where do I start? I'm a young
Aquarius looking forward to the gradual onset of the Seventh Age
withexcited anticipation and wonder. Since childhood I have
constantly soughtthe truth of life, the answers to human
existence; and much of what youwrote in your little biography
resonated... I've always been fascinated bythese higher,
mysterious realms of thought - religion, philosophy,mythology,
astrology, egyptology, especially the wisdom which I've always
intuitively believed ancient cultures possessed.Josh

Hey AndyHad a great tour of the road to Hana with you. Someone told me
to Google for the year 2012 having to do with the Mayan Long
Count Calendar.Reminded me of your discussions.Have a
great day.Paul Pacifica, CA

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Hi Andy!Last week my dear
friend Karyna XXXX recommended your book to me. Although
I've been to Egypt, lastnight is the first time I've
ever dreamt of a Sphinx (By the way, it was living)! So,
this morning, I figuredI better read your book!!!
Thank-you so much for your generosity of Spirit!!!Your
kindness is greatly appreciatedGod/Goddess Bless You,
and have a very happy 'Vernal' New Year!Love & Light
AndreaCanada------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AndyI finished your book and am impressed with your scope of
topic coverage. Your Great Year examination is a most
intriguing subject and while I was reading it, I
remembered reading about the Mayan 2012 mythology, that
concerns their calendar system ending in the year 2012.
Doomsday sayers proclaim, this is the true end of days date,
others proclaim that 2012 signifies the end of 1 cycle
of the Mayan cosmological calendar for earth. Gabe------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Andy, I just stumbled onto your web page for the first time
today! It wassooooo nice! Have you ever picked up a
book and experienced such a connection to itsmessage and
author that you knew with out any doubt what was written in
itbefore you turned the pages? Every now and then this
will happen to me. And today, when I came across your
web page...it has happened again!I felt this
overwhelming connection to you immediately! Almost as if
youare a long lost twin, (an inner twin version of
myself, if there could besuch a phenomenon!) Sounds
corny, but true! It gave me a whole newmeaning to
"Dejevu"! Thank you so much for all of the great
information that you are providing! SincerelyBarbara------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Andy,

I went to your webpage and was
reading in your book. Lots of fun to read that! I liked
"live/evil, lived/devil" and the yin/yang +/-
relationships throughout. All quite true. The wabble period
of 25,800 years is actually a variable that is never
25,800. It only approximates that number if you average it,
but you probably know that. If you were to put a pencil
lead on the end of a long stick that points through the
earth's axis and goes out to the edge of our galaxy to
draw on, the wabble pointer would draw something that looked
like an irregular gear, each tooth different.I see how you keep the book fun to read, and in that
subject, that isn't easy. Craig

I had read some of your stuff
amongst many other works and find yours can be conveyed

to interested parties on a forum
where we think we have found a pattern in weather cycles
etc...

I am finding it very difficult
with my not so good grammatical skills at expressing the
workings
of the celestial timings of the Grand Year etc.. And
therefore am asking permission if I can quote some of the
text from your chapters of "Secrets of the Sphinx" on a
forum. Craig
